JSB Market Research: Nuclear Medicine Market and Radiopharmaceuticals - Global Trends & Forecast to 2017
Nuclear Medicine Market & Radiopharmaceuticals [SPECT/PET Radioisotopes (Technetium, F-18)], [Beta/Alpha radiation therapy (I131, Y-90)], [Applications (Cancer/Oncology, Cardiac)] & Stable Isotopes (Deuterium, C-13) - Global Trends & Forecast to 2017
On 13rd June 2014

The report focuses on "Nuclear Medicine Market and Radiopharmaceuticals [SPECT/PET Radioisotopes (Technetium, F-18)], [Beta/Alpha radiation therapy (I131, Y-90)], [Applications (Cancer/Oncology, Cardiac)] & Stable Isotopes (Deuterium, C-13) - Global Trends & Forecast to 2017"
The market of radiopharmaceuticals is dominated by diagnostic radioisotopes, comprising of SPECT and PET radioisotopes. The lions share of the SPECT market is taken up by Tc-99m, whereas the PET market is dominated by F-18FDG isotope. Furthermore, the PET market will witness a double digit growth during the forecast period. The therapeutic segment contributes only 10% to the global radiopharmaceuticals market and I-131 has been considered as the gold standard for various oncology treatments in a combined therapy. Global nuclear medicines market is majorly driven by the increasing adoption of PET and SPECT scanners, and rising awareness for radiopharmaceuticals, whereas short half life of isotopes and stringent regulations are the factors that are hindering the growth of radiopharmaceuticals worldwide.

    Approximately 85 percent of diagnostic imaging procedures in nuclear medicine use this isotope. Technetium-99m is made from the synthetic substance Molybdenum-99 which is a by-product of nuclear fission. It is because of its parent nuclide, that Technetium-99m is so suitable to modern medicine. Molybdenum-99 has a half-life of approximately 66 hours, and decays to Tc-99m, a negative beta, and an antineutrino. This is a useful life since, once this product (molybdenum-99) is created, it can be transported to any hospital in the world and would still be producing technetium-99m for the next week. The betas produced are easily absorbed, and Mo-99 generators are only minor radiation hazards, mostly due to secondary X-rays produced by the…

    Radioisotopes allow treatment and diagnosis of medical illnesses without the cost and trauma of open surgery (which carries risks like infection, accidents, and long recovery periods). The use of Tc-99m produces hot-spot images, which reveal early signs of disease and map how organs are functioning. The low energy gamma radiation it emits, the small dose in which it's injected and it a short half-life (6hours), minimises damage to tissues. The patient's total exposure to radiation is less than in an X-ray. So far, there have been no reported side effects.…

    Nuclear chemistry in medicine is very controversial. Many say the dangers of using radioactive materials on human bodies are far more negative than positive. Others strongly agree with the use of radiochemistry in the field of medicine. Nuclear medicine is in the field of medicine by using imaging devices. Doctors use small amounts of radioactive materials called radio tracers that are either injected into the bloodstream, inhaled or swallowed. Radiation therapy is also a therapy that uses radioactive materials to treat cancers. The use of nuclear medicine is a fast-growing idea in the world of medicine. About 1/3 of modern procedures in hospitals use nuclear chemistry. Nuclear medicine technologist’s employment is projected to grow faster than the average for all…

    Iodine

    Iodine is one of the earliest elements whose radioisotopes were used in nuclear medicine. The most common, stable form of iodine has an atomic number of 53 and an atomic weight of 127, this is because you have 53 protons plus 74 neutrons. These numbers mean that the nucleus is stable and not radioactive. However, a lesser stable form of iodine has 53 protons but only four extra neutrons, for a total atomic weight of 131. With too many neutrons in its nucleus, iodine is unstable and radioactive with a half life of up to eight days. Because of its radioactivity, Iodine 131 can be detected in the body, particularly in the thyroid gland.…

    Brief Description The independent community pharmacy owner is a hybridized role that emphasizes pharmacist management skills in a community setting. The individual is responsible for both providing care to the community and for maintaining the stability of the business itself. It is necessary for the owner to be capable of leading a team, often less than 10 persons but can increase with store growth, and have accounting skills. The owner, generally, has a large sum of money invested in the pharmacy and as such their financial stability is intertwined to the success of the nuclear pharmacy. A typical day may include tasks such as handling radioactive substance, handling conflicts between staff members, filling nuclear prescriptions, ensuring the proper handling of radiopharmaceuticals, and communicating the proper radiopharmaceutical-related information to others. The biggest challenged for persons considering a career in this area are the time and money that must be invested to initially start a nuclear pharmacy. Equipment used in a nuclear pharmacy tends to be more expensive. Tungsten shields and leaded glass shielding are some of the more expensive items found in a nuclear pharmacy. About three quarters of a million dollars needs to be invested in inventory, and for a new graduate, that is a large sum of money. Nuclear pharmacy owners spend a great amount of their time in work-related activities, and 80 hour work weeks are not uncommon. The stress level that comes with the added responsibility of running the business can be taxing. It may take many years before the pharmacy is profitable, and it is entirely possible the store will never become profitable. One must consider all of these possibilities before deciding upon a career as an…

    Guidant: Radiation Therapy

    • 2566 Words
    • 11 Pages

    The market's size is yet unknown, because, as with many new technologies, it is just now taking shape. In table A on page 14 of the case, a matrix of different growth scenarios together with different developments regarding the dominant technology can be seen. If we take Ginger Howard's statements on the potential of the technology and the larger mental barriers of patients to leave radioactive material in their body for a long period of time, it seems most likely, that the market will be dominated by non-stent products and that it will become very large, namely between 636 million and 1.73 billion dollars. Concerning the markets growth potential, one can take a look at comparable markets and how they performed in the past. As can be seen in exhibit 1 page 16 of the case, the market for coronary angioplasty (which is fitting because it is a low invasiveness technique as well and because both markets will be strongly interconnected in the future) has been growing since 1990. Radiation therapy can be seen as a complementary service to CA. Therefore this trend will most probably also affect it. Furthermore heart disease-rates are continuously increasing and becoming a larger concern to society, which may help to overcome scepticism and increase the market's growth potential. The above information shows quite clearly that the market for radiation therapy is potentially very large and has great potential for growth.…
